I was getting ready to make tuna casserole and was getting ingredients out.  I looked over and Samuel had decorated the tuna can! 

Good buddies! 

WARNING: Never leave a baby unattended (even for a minute to use the restroom...haha), while eating oatmeal!  Or else, the following may happen.

Afternoon at the Zoo

 Some how I uploaded these photos in reverse order.  Here are the kids on the way home from a recent trip to the zoo, zonked out! 

 Three little cubs in the bear cave. 

 Oh wait, now they are eagles in a nest.  ;)

 Aww.  :)

I smell trouble!

Haircuts!

All three kids got haircuts last weekend. It was actually Jacob's first. I was getting ready to cut Samuel's long overdue hair, and Jacob brought a stool and towel over and sat down and tried to put the towel over his shoulders. He was very upset until I decided to let him get a haircut too. Here he is all ready!



He looks so grown up already!



Bye bye baby mullet..

Ta Da! The boys spiffy new hair!

And little Miss Rae insisted on having a haircut too, and bangs! She looks cute with them. Reminds me of how I used to wear my hair at her age, except my Mom used to curl and hairspray mine. We'll save that for another day. :)

This is when we first brought Oliver home. I don't think he wanted to come out of that box!

Just thought this was cute. But wait... babies can't watch tv!

Oliver was watching the flames in the pellet stove.

Samuel asked if he could have another Peep, and I said no. I looked later and he had nibbled each of their noses off! I guess he didn't think I'd notice. :)

Duffany baby number 4!!!!

Happy Sam coloring eggs. :)

And Elsie impressed by her BRIGHT pink one!

Jacob decorating his egg before coloring it.

Finding eggs Easter morning!

Look where Elsie found her basket. We really had her stumped. :)

All ready for church.

Snazzy Jake.

Yes, we added another animal to the zoo! :) Meet Oliver.

Little of This and That!

Yes, so I decided to do a little updating.... So bring on the pictures! This one is from "Grandma G.'s" birthday at the park.

Sam already has his cupcake picked out. ;)

Grandma's HUGE card from cousins Ava and Brendan.

Boys on the seesaw.

Ava, Brendan and Elsie Rae.

Nell (our puppy) even came for the fun! She loved the water. Typical lab! I couldn't keep Miss Elsie out of the water either!

Nell meeting her "cousin" Miss Bailey. :)

Jacob found the sled at Grandma and Grandpa D's and wanted a ride. Thanks Aunt Keely!

The shirt says it all!

Three filthy kids, that's was it's all about! Again, this was taken durin that warm week in March. Lately it's been winter coats and hats! (Not what all you spring breakers want to come home to I'm sure!)

Happy after preschool pick-up!

Matching and ready for church! hehe... I can only get away with this for so long. ;)

Oops, another one snuck in there. :)

Little Miss Margie Sue recently turned three!

Trying to catch one of Aunt Jenny's chickens.

We've had perfect kite flying weather lately! Here's Samuel and his spiderman kite.
